Nationals

Despite tying the game with a late rally, the Nationals still were dealt a crushing loss Monday in Philadelphia, falling back below the .500 mark.
Despite a game-tying homerun in the top of the ninth inning, the Nats lose 5-4 to the Phillies on a walk-off hit.
One week after his visit to Dr. James Andrews, Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper has been cleared to begin ramping up his physical activities.
